And they are still leading. What a shit hole. Thinking about moving to SF and getting a job power washing human feces off the street

"Starting In 2020 Public Schools Across California Will No Longer Suspend Students For Disobeying Teachers, Because Too Many Students Of Color (Non-Whites) Get Suspended"

"California contributed more than 15 percent of the nation’s new jobs between October 2011 and October 2012 - adding more jobs in 12 months than Texas and the rest of the other top-10 fastest-growing states combined - while home building is bouncing back and demand for houses is increasing."

And
"Of the 171,000 new jobs the entire U.S. added in October, 27 percent were in California. And since the beginning of the year, California has added nearly 300,000 jobs, outperforming Texas by a decent margin and outpacing New York by more than 2 to 1."

Unemployment fell from the above 10 percent level that it suffered under the Republican control to the highest growth of new jobs in the country.

If we can only hang on until we get the GOP clowns out of the House, then we will see an improved economy.

Does CA still have a GOP?

A question: do you think that suspension is the best method of redirection/behavior correction for kids ages 6-11?

Starting next school year, it will be illegal for public schools in the state to suspend students in first through fifth grade for willfully defying teachers or administrators.

Then, from 2021 through 2025, it will be temporarily extended to kids in grades six through eight.

I could understand objecting to suspending high schoolers, because they are nearing adulthood and better understand the non-immediate consequences of their actions, but I don't think that first graders would get the proper learning experience from suspension. Punishment for younger ages needs to be more immediate, finite, and localized (e.g. you take a cookie you didn't get permission to have, you lose the cookie and have to go stand in the corner for 15min. Making them stay home the next day(s) after doesn't process in their brains as tied to the wrong action they took).

I think suspension is appropriate for middle school age, but it has to be for something more egregious than "willfully defying teachers." Sorry, but that's too subjective, it has to be concrete actions that put other student's or staff's safety at risk.

"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther

The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill

Texas is GOP totally and they are gaining residents. NY State, California, and Illinois are all looking at losing a congressional seat. Colorado and Montana will probably get one after the census. Will be interesting to see how the gerrymandering will work here, another seat in the suburbs, maybe the southern burbs?

California recently passed a bill trying to help out workers trapped in the "gig economy", but the workers themselves are not very happy about it. Independent truckers have even got the courts to hold off on the bill for a while. Writers and other independent contractors are also worried about it hurting their income. I can imagine truckers and writers leaving the state. You don't need to live in Cali to do either occupation. So California could add to their power shortages by adding writer and trucker shortages.

And this would not even begin to plug the hole in their budget.


"California legislators want a wealth tax on the rich, even if they flee.
Soak the Rich Scheme

California legislators seek a Wealth Tax that applies to anyone who has lived in the state for the last 10 years."

How in the world could this ever be constitutional? Oh yeah, these Democrats haven't read the document or they have and think they know better. Hopefully the people fleeing have learned a lesson and don't continue to vote for the people who think this insanity is ok.

"If you live in states like California, New Jersey, and Illinois, get the hell out now.

We did.

But please note that It Takes 3 Weeks to Escape Illinois

Why 3 weeks? That's how long it takes to reserve a one-way U-Haul outbound.

"Everyone is leaving. No one is coming," a U-Haul agent told us a few weeks ago.


The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.

AB5 is having a stay put on it by a federal judge. Uber and Lyft have threatened to leave California if AB5 becomes law. AB5 is well intentioned, trying to make businesses hire employees with full benefits instead of just contractors but it will have some bad side effects. Increasing the cost of labor will convince some companies to leave the state, taking jobs away. So the Democrats plan to make AB5 the law of the land if Biden becomes POTUS and the Senate is taken back by the Democrats.
